Princess Leonor of Spain made a significant move on her path to the throne as she turned 18 by wearing a white suit to swear allegiance to the Spanish constitution in Madrid on Tuesday.

This fashion choice seemingly threw shade at Meghan Markle, who has faced criticism for her own white suit ensemble.

The Princess of Asturias styled her hair in a low ponytail, allowing a clear view of her newly awarded government medals and the collar of the royal and distinguished Spanish Order of Carlos III.

With this outfit, Princess Leonor followed in the footsteps of modern royal women and established her own princess uniform.

Traditionally, royal women rarely strayed from dresses and skirts, with Queen Elizabeth rarely photographed wearing pants during her long reign.

However, power suits have become a fresh choice for modern royal duties.

The color white seems to be particularly popular, as both Princess Catherine and Queen Letizia have previously donned white suits.

Princess Catherine wore a fitted white Alexander McQueen suit multiple times, including at the Commonwealth Games in July 2022 and during a royal tour of the Caribbean with Prince William in March.

Similarly, Queen Letizia has also sported a white suit on various occasions.

In contrast, Meghan’s choice of a white off-the-shoulder blazer and wide-legged trousers received criticism.

A Hollywood stylist deemed the outfit completely inappropriate for the event, citing issues with color, fit, and shoe choice.

The stylist also criticized Meghan’s hairstyle, considering it unsuitable for the occasion.

This is not the first time Meghan has faced backlash for wearing a white suit.

She previously wore a white Valentino suit at the 2022 Invictus Games, which was also deemed ill-fitting.

Princess Leonor’s fashion statement suggests that she aligns herself with Princess Catherine in the ongoing feud between Meghan Markle and the royal family.

Prince William and Kate, the Prince and Princess of Wales, along with their children, have been praised for their roles in securing the future of the monarchy amidst the ongoing crisis and rift within the royal family.

Their steadfastness and sensible approach to handling the crises, particularly in response to Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s attacks, have endeared them to royal fans.

The royal couple and their children have captivated audiences with their dynamic personalities and various activities.

Their positive image of the royal family has remained intact despite the challenges they have faced.

Princess Leonor’s fashion choice adds another layer to the ongoing narrative surrounding Meghan Markle and her relationship with the royal family.
